Our Mission

When it comes to your skin cancer treatment, you deserve no less than the best. Dr. Nalovic has achieved the highest degree of Mohs surgery qualification by completing an American College of Mohs Surgery approved fellowship. For you, this means peace of mind, knowing that you will receive superior quality and competency, as well as an optimal outcome.

Mohs micrographic surgery has set a new standard in skin cancer treatment. An increasing number of physicians are performing Mohs surgery, which is now widely accepted as the most effective treatment for most types of skin cancer. However, not all Mohs surgeons receive the same level of training as Dr. Katarina Nalovic, a fellowship trained Mohs surgeon.

Our Values

Atlanta Skin Cancer Specialists is a referral based practice specializing in Mohs Micrographic Surgery as well as Adult and Pediatric Skin Surgeries. We seek to provide surgical expertise in a professional, warm and caring environment.

We believe each patient should undergo the most compassionate and comforting journey ever experienced in a medical setting, in an environment of clinical excellence.

Awards & Achievements

There is no substitute for additional formal training under the guidance of a mentor. Experience is the true education for any surgical specialty as has been demonstrated with other surgical specialties such as cardiac surgery, urology and gastrointestinal surgery.

Mohs micrographic surgery involves an additional one to two years of training after residency. The Mohs micrographic surgery fellowship match is coordinated through the San Francisco Matching Program (SF Match) along with 11 other specialty fellowship matches, including craniofacial surgery, facial plastic surgery, neurosurgery, ophthalmology and pediatric otolaryngology.

There are approximately 49 training programs that offer Mohs micrographic surgery training in the United States. There are 32 fellowship-trained Mohs surgeons in Georgia.

Not only is Dr. Nalovic one of these 32 surgeons in Georgia, she is also a Trainer and Instructor for new fellows in training.

The American College of Mohs Surgery sponsors the fellowship-matching process. There is no alternative route of formal training for this specialty. Training in Mohs micrographic and reconstructive surgery cannot be mastered during short training periods such as preceptorship or residency and is best learned in a Mohs surgery fellowship.

The ACMS (www.skincancermohssurgery.org, www.mohscollege.org) was established by Dr. Frederic Mohs himself, and its fellowship training program is generally acknowledged as the benchmark in Mohs surgery training. Through an extensive application and interview process, only the most qualified physicians are selected by ACMS to participate in a fellowship program. Participants must undergo a rigorous 1 to 2 year training program subsequent to completing a residency in dermatology.

During fellowship training, Dr. Nalovic studied and trained under the guidance of veteran Mohs College surgeons who have demonstrated expertise in Mohs surgery. A cornerstone of the ACMS fellowship training program is cultivating experience and judgment in each graduate. Since skin cancer occurs in a diversity of forms, degrees and locations, the program is set up to be thorough and stringent.

Performed a vast array of reconstructions, ranging from the simplest to the most complex, multi-step repairs

As ACMS graduate, Dr. Nalovic gained an uncommon level of exposure, including everything from challenging tumor locations to rare tumor pathology and complex wound reconstruction. You can rest assured that they have the training and experience to achieve the best outcome from your skin cancer treatment.
